Jeffrey Emanuel - Nagasaki

The only reason I visited Nagasaki is because my father, daddy as I used to call him, was in Nagasaki half a year after the bomb. He must have been 22 at the time.

My father, who circled the world as a radio operator in the British Royal Navy during WWII, was in Hong Kong and was sent with his friends to see the devastation.

They took just a few pictures.

My father is on the bottom left.
By coincidence, the one on the left of the top row was a cousin of my mother (long before my parents met).



And here what it looks like today.



I miss my daddy.
